Id This Lure Please

[MDBowHunter]

This is a lure that I snagged in a community pond about 25 years ago, I've carried it around in different tackle boxes since then, but I've never tried to fish with it. It must be a saltwater lure because of the stainless hooks, at least I'm guessing they're stainless as these are the originals from the day I found it. I beleive that it was clear originally and the color is from its age, like I said I got 25 years ago and who know how long it was at the bottom of that pond. All of the belly hooks are held on with clips and screws, no spilt rings.

That's pretty funny, I just found one of those. I believe it's a Mirrolure lipless crankbait. Not that old.

Definitely a MirrOlure.  Very popular speckled trout bait at the coast.

Thanks for the replies, with the info given here and the few numbers that are stamped on the bottom. It is a MirrOlure, but it is vintage and one of the first that they made (this exact model is no longer made).The glass eyes is a give away, at least that's what I've read. Like I said Ive had it for somewhere between 25 to 30 years myself not counting the time it sat at the bottom of that pond.

Yup, man does that bring back memories of when I lived in Corpus Christi Texas; did a ton of spec and redfish fishing there and that was the lure to use.
